I'm not getting involved in the thread this year, last years is always worth another read through though, keeps the forum alive. :hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carrickfiona Posted January 14, 2011 Author Share Posted January 14, 2011 I see. We have returned to Sheffield after several years living in Ireland, and my 11 year old son, who has been mainly brought up in Ireland, is missing "home" a lot and I hoped there might be some fun stuff on where he could meet other kids of Irish descent. Being English myself, I had never noticed any significant anti-irish feeling before, but unfortunately my son has experienced some very prejudiced remarks from other kids.

In that case you may find this website useful. Nothing about this year's festival on it yet, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
